Liquid Composites Molding (LCM) is a longstanding industrial manufacturing process of resin injection or infusion through fibrous reinforcements. Widely used in the composites industry, especially for structural thermoset matrix composite parts, LCM offers a great potential for creating structural components with high price/performance ratio.
PAM-RTM minimizes the risk of producing defective parts and helps master tool design and manufacturing process. It provides rapid solutions for preliminary design, as well as refined analysis for process and mold optimization, and final design checking. Among its numerous capabilities, PAM-RTM allows non-isothermal filling and curing simulation as well as solid modeling required to analyze the resin flow through the thickness. Its high performance solver ensures industrial computation time independently of the model size and complexity.
PAM-RTM accelerates time to market while reducing costs related to the tooling and injection/infusion process.
PAM-RTM offers a great variety of validated processes and allows the determination of the best combination of resins and fibers.
